I think it smacks of a possible general election looming and a fear that Labour really could get in. Not at all what The Times would want.

LOL that is the funniest thing I've read in a long time. For all the Tories woeful performances. Labour should be absolutely furlongs in front but aren't.
If Corbyn gets in to coin a well known headline from the Sun a few years back.
"If Corbyn wins today will the last person to leave Britain please turn out the lights."
Good luck the country will be bankrupt within three years & you'll be paying taxes so high you're bollocks will squeak when you walk down the street.......

As a matter of interest how far ahead are the Conservatives at the moment? Don’t forget the DUP bribe has now run out and Brecon and Radnorshire is a shoo in for the Liberal Democrat party. I believe 311 out of 650 is not a majority but you do ‘the math’ (In Britain we have better attention spans so can do multiple sums and call it maths. Except it’s arithmetic).

What's with all this 'Math' malarkey.Don't be such a pompous t*** you're no more 'British' than me although you always try hard to appear cutting edge just because you live in Croydon or surrounding neighbourhoods ( See what I did there spelt it the same way that you do !!) Re read my original post I said that the Labour party considering how abysmal the Tories were should be absolutely romping home in the opinion polls, but Corbyn is such a liability to them that a huge swathe of the population no matter how badly the other parties appear will never vote for this Marxist clown.

Just heard a reporter from The Sun on the health story. He says that this has been circulating amongst the media for months mainly being driven by Labour MPs.

What he didn't say was if they were Corbyn allies or enemies but you got the impression it was the later.

Still a bad piece of journalism as no one went on the record.

I’m waiting for him to wet or soil himself, stood up in public in front of tv cameras. He’s probably done that already and soaked his leg and socks.

And I said they may yet limp into power one way or another

So you have not adopted your new country then, I thought immigrants were supposed to learn their new country’s language. I expect that will be because you will come back to Blighty when you can’t afford US medical costs.

Ridiculous story as JC is robust but from the civil service?

Don't recall that happening before and is completely out of order.

Really he should resign he must know he is completely wrong and heading for a hiding from the libdems.

Can't help but like him for standing up for his beliefs over a long career.

He won’t resign and cares little for the middle ground. I wonder whether people will eventually get cold feet re the Lib Dems when it starts to look like they are a real option.

Well I managed to pay for cancer treatment, dental care & have a hernia operation so I am doing Ok, but thanks for asking.
As for assimilation doing good in that department as well with probably around 20 (off the top of my head) nationalities living along my small street as it is.
Maybe something the denizens of what used to be a great borough Croydon used to be before It turned into a s***hole.
Wow the Bronx actually safer than some parts of London. Who'd of thought that when I first got here.
Anyway I'll leave you too you're HR!!

No, just a Remainer fantasy.

Ah, a politician's answer.

So, whilst you are working in the US you can afford medical care. When you finish working will you come back to Britain like so many other Brit expats?

You are out of date, Croydon is rapidly becoming a cool place to live. Anywhere South of central Croydon always has been but now even West Croydon is starting to gentrify. And you should see the enormous apartment blocks going up in central Croydon, it's truly incredible.

The number of originating nationalities near you is neither here nor there. I asked if you were assimilating into the US culture as you don't seem to have learned either of the languages yet. You may as well go straight to Spanish now.

So no chance they will hold the balance of power then? I think it is you that is in fantasy land.

Let's hope they do a better job next time than they did when in bed with the Tories.

I remember David Owen and I remember the original Liberals. I had time for aspects of both of them.

There is a certain morality within the Lib Dems that is an echo to old Quakerism that I have time for but it forms only a part of a wholly unrealistic egalitarian worldview that is contributing to the decline of western civilisation.

So in short, yes....the idea that the Lib Dems would be credible would be a nightmare.....in a sense.

There's an argument, in certain areas of the right, for accelerationism of course......so perhaps it wouldn't be such a bad thing in the long run.

Erm Maple Languages? What is my username? I live in a neighborhood (see what I did there)where It's very Puerto Rican, Dominican, Etc so yes I speak some Spanish.
As for assimilation probably better than some of the Somalians living in Thornton Heath (remind me again what part of the EU is Somalia in)
You remind me of the vicar on the film Zulu, well meaning but totally clueless to what's going on around you or more than likely oblivious too it.
